My daughter just returned to Jiu Jitsu with Gracie Barra in Lutz, Florida. I am really happy with the school, the owner Juan and Professor Eduardo . The professor is amazing. In the short time she has been here, everyone has welcomed her in the kids classes and in the adult classes. We’re super excited! Thank you Gracie Barra !Posted on Tiago Pina2024-12-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gracie Barra Lutz is a fantastic BJJ gym. Kids get to grow up with the very positive influence of the coaching staff, learning discipline and self confidence for the upcoming school years with a Martial Art that actually works in real life situations. Adults get to learn an intense self defense skill while burning a ton of calories and developing strength and cardio through daily workouts. Be it traditional Gi (a tougher version of the traditional Kimono) or No-gi (shorts and tshirt) classes, you learn the skills to defend yourself in real life situations. The gym has a great mix of newbies and experienced fighters and the coaches foster development at your own pace. The gym offers a free tryout class, so you can see if the workout fits your style. This is a great environment and my son and I enjoy it as not only a workout, but bonding time.Posted on Orlando Filho2024-11-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nice classPosted on Ester Aquino2024-10-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have been going to Gracie Barra Lutz for about one month now, and I cannot sing their praises enough. We had gone to tests at two other jiu jitsu schools, but there was always something about the method of teaching and attention that felt off. At this school, from the very first visit, I could tell they were different. They are attentive to each child, and focus on developing skills both as a group and individually. There is an outstanding family environment. The professor is excellent, clear in his instructions, and highly-skilled. We are so happy to have found a local jiu jitsu school as great as this one.Posted on Glenda DeVeaux2024-09-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great facility .. nice and clean. , great instruction. Such good families and the kids are respectful. We have loved it and attend three times a week. My kids truly enjoy it!
